Jon Horford will transfer from Michigan, and he will be eligible play immediately for his new team, Michigan announced in a release today.

Horford, a 6-10 forward who was one of the team captains this season, is scheduled to graduate in May. He’s been a reliable back-up for the Wolverines for three seasons (he averaged 3.8 points and 4.2 rebounds in 13.8 minutes per game as a junior).

“Jon has been an integral part of our many accomplishments over the last four years,” coach John Beilein said in the statement. “He brought great enthusiasm, leadership and work ethic to our program. Jon is a wonderful young man, who has a very bright future ahead of him. With his graduation this May, he will have the opportunity to play immediately at another Division I program. We will be rooting for him every step of the way.”

His departure adds to an interesting time in Michigan’s offseason. The Wolverines are still waiting on NBA draft decisions from Nik Stauskas, Mitch McGary and Glenn Robinson. If those three leave, the Wolverines’ roster will have a very different feel for the 2014-15 campaign.
